The Nokia N9 isn’t coming to America

Nokia’s first and last Meego smartphone, N9, is not going to make its way stateside according to the Finnish handset maker. Its a sad for everyone who was smitten with the N9 with its open source underpinnings. Keep reading for the official response.

After the very positive reception to the launch of the Nokia N9, the product is now being rolled out in countries around the world. At this time we will not be making it available in the US. Nokia takes a market by market approach to product rollout, and each country makes its own decisions about which products to introduce from those available. Decisions are based on an assessment of existing and upcoming products that make up Nokia’s extensive product portfolio and the best way in which to address local market opportunities.

Engadget further learned through the Inquirer about a similar response for UK. I think its finally time for that well earned vacation in Switzerland.
